New Music Friday

The week’s finally coming to a close. Time to stop looking at emails, spreadsheets, and corporate monotony, and time to start enjoying this week’s influx of new music. Today, we have releases from various artists from Netflix’s Rapture and South Carolina’s Nick Grant.

The artists featured in the Netflix series, Rapture, all have collaborated to create the show’s soundtrack. From collaborations of Dave East and Nas to T.I. and Rapsody, this soundtrack is filled with fantastic artistic pairings to create a multi-textured product. Nick Grant’s new project, Dreamin’ Out Loud, is a 14-track album that features DRAM, DJ Khaled, Yo Gotti, DRAM, and others. First announced last year via Twitter, this album has been a long time coming, and judging off early listens, it is well worth the wait. When asked how he decided on Dreamin’ Out Loud as the album title, Grant responded, “I chose the title ‘Dreamin’ Out Loud’ because everything I ever dreamt about is happening, and it’s happening so fast.”
